Hi fellow Thiel owners. Long time owner here. I have power plane 1.2's , 3.5's and 2.4's. A couple questions regarding the 3.5's being used as home theater speakers. I have an early model SVS subwoofer with the thiel EQ plugged in. A B&K 200 watt power amp is powering Thiels.
2. My dedicated theater room has a stage area with wall cavities on either side of the screen. I was using some infinities which seemed happy in corner cavities . Their cone enclosures need replacement so I figured I'd try the 3.5's. Enclosed in the corner wall cavities they seemed a bit muffled. I moved them out about 2 ft from the corner walls and about a foot in front of the rear wall. this puts them on the stage on either side of the screen. Kind of works with improved sound but not blending in with the surrounding décor. They have passed the movie audition as far as being able to reproduce movie effects at high decibels. The movie Dune has been a good demo.
Am I trying to make something work that isn't meant for this application. It feels like I'm taking a luxury range rover and using like a 4wd pickup. Might work for a while but eventually somethings gonna break. Also is there anyway these could be made to sound better in the corners? Enjoying this thread. Great resource!
